Freeware: CGM Aged Film LE

Have you ever searched for a filmlook for Final Cut Pro or Final Cut Express? Stop searching and don`t waste money because here
it is! The CGM Aged Film LE simulates 35 mm film and aged film (shake, jump, scratches, dirt, hair, gamma, brightness flicker,
...).

CGM Aged Film LE is a special version of Aged Film; one of over 40 effects and transitions included in the CGM DVE Vol.2+ package from
CGM, www.cgm-online.com. CGM Aged Film LE is a tool designed to make your DV footage look less
like video and more like film. Use the presets as starting points, adjusting the controls to get just the look you're after.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The following adjustments are available to the CGM Aged Film LE filter:

The "Variation" slider selects various default settings of the filter. The CGM Aged Film LE filter assigned to the same
clip with the same Variation setting will produce an identical result. To vary the results from clip to clip, choose different variation
settings.

The "Stripes" section allows you to define the frequency and amount of the stripes inherent to damaged film.

The "Grain" section allows you to change the size and the visibility of the film grain. Additionally you can select
between two grain modes. "Grain over whole image" simulates film which was duplicated and converted to video. "Less
grain in bright areas" simulates video which was scanned directly from film.

The "Trapped Hair" slider allows you to define the duration of the trapped hair; commonplace with old, dirty film.

The "Tint" section allows you to simulate the age or mood of the film. If you increase the amount of tint and leave
the preset color as brown, the film appears to get older and older. Eventually it will loose its original color and the result will
be very old, sepia tinted footage. To desaturate video, assign a grey color as the tint color. The amount of desaturation will be
defined by adjusting the amount of tint. To alter the mood of the film, try assigning a blue tint to give a cool, dark feeling,
or an orange/yellow tint to give a warm, welcoming feeling.

To give your video an appearance of aged film, start with the preset "Aged Film". Change the slider "Variation"
to get different results. All above sections and sliders are active.

To give your video an appearance of modern, clean film, select the preset "Film (Automatic Settings)". In this mode, the Stripes
and Trapped Hair are deactivated and the Tint is set automatically. The section "Grain" is adjustable.

To use your own settings for a modern, clean film effect and to assign your own color tinting and mood, select the preset "Film
(Manual Settings)". In this mode, the Stripes and Trapped Hair sections are deactivated. The sections "Grain" and "Tint"
are adjustable.
